"If you're not from the South, then you may not be very familiar with grits - that affordable breakfast staple that's so popular in Southern states. It's made from finely ground corn, which is combined with some sort of cooking liquid to create an oatmeal-like gruel that can be eaten with a variety of different toppings. Some people prefer their grits sweet, adding sugar or other ingredients like honey or maple syrup. Often, sweet grits may be served with dried fruit or nuts."
"Whichever way you prefer your grits, though, there's a chance that you're still making some mistakes when you prepare them. Although grits seem like an easy dish to cook, there are still some common mistakes that you should steer clear of if you want to cook the best bowl possible. We spoke to Rena Awada, owner, head chef, food blogger, and content creator at Healthy Fitness Meals;"
Grits are made from finely ground corn combined with cooking liquid to form an oatmeal-like gruel; they can be prepared sweet or savory. Stone-ground grits offer superior flavor but retain hulls that are hard to digest; failing to skim hulls is a major mistake. Proper preparation includes removing protective hulls, a process that can involve soaking. Even simple dishes like grits require attention to ingredient choice and technique to avoid common errors and achieve the best texture and flavor. Simple adjustments elevate grits from basic to exceptional.
